N150 WIRELESS ROUTER WNR612v3
NETGEAR88
Hi , i think once we reset router everything changes to default i.e,wifi name as highlighted in attached pic and it's status to open instead of secured if i am wrong please correct me. For instance i have tried that default password as quoted on router.

netgear88 is secured ....default WIFI settings are secure...only your router uses the default passphrase for wifi.
Log in and change router password if your worried about it.

I can't quite understand what you are trying to do? When you hit the reset button all the router set up you made is
gone and router is back to factory default setting. Default user name/password to log into the router is admin/password.
After log in, you have to set up the router again according to your needs or what you like with such things like SSID, passphrase, etc.
